COURSE DESCRIPTION
Investment in the advanced materials market is expanding the world over—in the space industry, medical technologies, defence, manufacturing, energy, telecommunications and more. Engineering professionals able to support materials innovation are in high demand.
What will you do?
Our Graduate Certificate of Materials Engineering will equip you with high-level knowledge at the real-world interface between materials engineering, chemistry and physics.
The industry-driven content is delivered over six months full-time, through a flexible blend of online and intensive face-to-face learning; and if you’re currently employed full-time and looking to upskill, you can make the study fit you by taking courses individually or combined.
You will:
work in the University’s state-of-the-art engineering research labs
have access to cutting-edge on-campus research and development facilities
work alongside world-class materials engineering researchers—including from the University of Adelaide Centre for Materials in Energy and Catalysis, and the ARC Research Hub for Graphene Enabled Industry Transformation.
You’ll also be able to take courses in your chosen specialisation: Energy; Quantum; or Optical.
Where could it take you?
You might work with industry partners to develop wide bandgap semiconductors for portable disinfection devices. You could help create a highly insulative, anticorrosive and hydrophobic coating for submarines. Perhaps you’ll synthesise a sustainable substitute for rare-earth elements in mobile phones. You may even wish to continue your studies in a materials engineering graduate diploma or master’s degree.
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION
The University of Adelaide unites and serves those striving to change the world—and themselves—for the better. It’s a place where history is made.Established in 1874, we’re home to over 29,000 students and 3,000 staff, all striving to create progress. For our community. For all. This is a university of outstanding quality—ranked as a top 100 global university—in the heart of the city of Adelaide.We were our country’s first university to welcome female students. The first to teach science and business. Our alumni have won Nobel Prizes, led the nation, and walked in space.
